Bariatric Recipes
My fiance just had Bariatric surgery not too long ago and is now able to eat soft foods. Does anyone know of a good website of recipes for different stages of bariatric? (Mainly looking for soft food recipes right now.)

My Lowest Weight Ever! (Comparison Pics Included)
I've finally hit my lowest weight I've ever been in my adult life. I'm getting closer and closer to my goal weight. But this is a huge success for me. Last week I got really close to it (165.2 lbs) but all of a sudden, even though I was eating right, I went up by 2 pounds even though I was eating right (which was a tad bit…

Peanut M&Ms
For about the past 2 weeks I have been having a craving for Peanut M&Ms. I knew if I didn't do something about it soon, I wouldn't be a pretty sight (eating whatever is in sight).

Along with my normal shirts feeling loose, and my coworker telling me it looked like I…

Worst Food Diary Category?
What's everyone's category that they do the worst at in the food diary? For me it's the sodium. Everything seems to have salt in it, and I hate that it does.

Hey everyone
Hey, I started on this site about 3 weeks ago, but only just now getting on to introduce myself. The thinnest I used to be was 160 lbs, and I would love to get back down to that again (from my photo, though I no longer have hair). I blame my ballooned weight on my fiance being such a good cook and baker (And if I'm being…

Controlling Portion Size
How does everyone manage their portion size for meals? I find remembering that my stomach is only as big as my fist is an easy way to do it. I just have to imagine my food squished up and if it'd comfortably fit in my stomach or not. After a while, it got to the point where if I ate more than that I would start to feel…
